@flatcapman Forget what people say about it. Most people today are not original and have no imagination. What they wear is dictated by what is fashionable at the time. I'm disgusted by today's sloppy, sleazy, fashion while I love beautiful, neat, creative styles, not fashion, from the 40s, 50s and 30s (in that order). I am also disgusted by the modern "fedoras." They are not made out of the correct materials, dot have the correct shape, are not sewn right. I love Optimo's very authentic hats.
@MrAceman441 I would really like one too. I really like the look and color combinations of the Optimo 1000 though it is currently out of my price range ($1000 as its name may suggest). But because of the quality you should be able to pass them down to your children and grandchildren. Hopefully it'll fit one of them.
Thanks, but no thanks. I can find plenty, plenty of hats for less than $100 that look just as good. I don't need to make more than one statement with my hat purchase, the second being I'm an idiot for spending a $1000 dollars for an accessory.
Sometimes people, including myself, value quality and craftsmanship. I dont mind spending a grand on something like this, which to me, is a work of art

The hats look awesome
Man, you look great in a hat!
I've got three Optimo's so far and I can say without a doubt, they are worth every penny. Pure quality and true style.
The second one and the last one (hat) look good on him head type

+R Lindsey are you serious ? thats the range ?
the simple difference being my optimo was crafted perfectly by an American, yours thrown together in the thousands by an 8yo in Bangkok.

remember that the accessory can last a lifetime!
